I practice Career Counseling. I work with clients on discovering who they are and what they are here to do. I utilize a strengths based, mindfulness approach in conjunction with tools such as the Human Design System, the Enneagram,the I Ching, the Strengthsfinder 2.0, and Values clarifications.

I have a passion for clients who are struggling with transitional issues such as the following: depression, work & family balance; grief & loss; adolescent & parenting; separation & divorce; blending & step-parenting; to name a few. Helping to prepare individuals & families for life events and crisis's is a pillar of my practice. I bring years of personal experience, expertise, training, and educational focus in marriage and family systemic based therapy, results oriented treatments and solutions for all involved! I look forward to speaking about how we can work together to meet your goals and objectives. My specialty focuses on relationships and emotional connections that I believe are two of the most powerful forces which move individuals into searches for transformation and healing. I use pluralistic approaches centered on a theoretical orientation of attachment and neuro-personal psychology based on solid, proven methodologies,treatments & solutions.
